In Brazil, Meta fined heavily for unequal treatment between Lula and Flavio Bolsonaro during the presidential election

Brazil's judiciary imposed a hefty fine on Meta for failing to ensure equal treatment between presidential candidates Lula and Flavio Bolsonaro during the elections. Lula accused Meta of bias favoring Bolsonaro, supported by Trump. The Electoral Court fined Meta 7.5 million reais but did not find evidence of deliberate election manipulation. Lula plans to strengthen social media regulations in Brazil. Meta denied any wrongdoing, attributing issues to technical problems. The court criticized Meta for not providing complete and transparent information. Flavio Bolsonaro, who left Brazil after refusing to accept his electoral defeat, claims to be the true leader from the U.S.
